by Dot Karcher......................................... Although in my heart, I know the Rainbow Bridge exists, There was always this little shadow of doubt hanging over me. Just like the little shadow of doubt or lack of faith we sometimes have when thinking about life after death. I council people every day on the loss of their beloved pets and I wanted to be sure what I was telling them was true. I was in the chatroom and when I left and went to bed, I had a long talk with God. I told Him I knew in my heart that the Rainbow Bridge was in fact real, and I thanked Him for all the signs He has given me to prove that it is real. But that I needed one more sign so that I knew what I was telling bereaved people parents was fact. I also told Him that if He would give me one more sign that the Rainbow Bridge does exist that I would never ask Him for another sign again That I would know in my heart that what I was telling people was the truth. We went to our stand at the open air flea market today. It was a bright sunny day with no rain at all forcast. About 10 am I was walking in the flea market and the thought hit me, "I wonder what sign God will give me that the Rainbow Bridge really does exist". I didn't think anymore about it and went back to my stand. I had noticed that the sky had darkened, but I didn't pay any attention to it even when it started to rain except to say, "I thought there was no rain forcasted for today" I was told "there wasn't any forcast. My 3 kids were playing on the other side of the flea market with some little friends. I busied myself sorting things and my head was down looking at something on the floor, when all of a sudden my 9 year old Brandi was beside me saying, "Mom Mom look at the beautiful Rainbow". I looked up, and what I saw took my breath away. It was the most beautiful Rainbow I had ever seen, just like the one I saw the evening my Casey Bear died. It was a full arc and had the most beautiful brillient colors. And it was directly in front of me. The flea market has a roof but no sides, and it looked like the Rainbow was right outside directly in front of me. It could have been anywhere but it was right there in front of me. It was as if God was saying "Here is the proof right in your face, now do you believe?" It looked like you could go right outside and touch it. It lasted for about 2 minutes and then slowly faded from right to left. I am telling this story in the name of God. He did prove to me today, that the Rainbow Bridge does really exist and our babies are there waiting for us, when our work on earth is done. I will never ask God for proof again. This is the word of God as to the existance of Rainbow Bridge. So if anyone has any doubts, please put them to rest. I have all the proof I need. God is good and He loves our babies more than we do. If we can love them with all our hearts and souls, then how much more can God love them? He loves them as much as He loves us. After all, He created them, just as He created us. Praise the Lord. May this proof that He has given me, bring you all peace. Comments would be appreciated by the author, Dot Karcher
